When I saw the thumbnail for this I knew it was yours, your style is so distinct. Good work, a shot like this shouldn't be buried so far down in the pack.

I like the photo, but the strips top and bottom distract me. Reminds me too much of those bars above and below movies on DVD.

Really like this. The border is a little distracting to me. Great stopped motion and great use of DOF. Nice angle.

Great job on the post-processing.
I like the two-part focal point, first to the spigot & drops, then shifting to the face, the attention flows as well as the water does here. Well done!

i dont see how the border helps this photo. it doesnt detract from it, really...but it doesnt add anything, IMO. its like an appendix. i have one, but it doesnt really do anything :-P
